Sinbad to release his “Make Me Wanna Holla” special as concert film

Sinbad sees what Kevin Hart’s stand-up concert films have done at the box-office in the past two years, and he’d like to be in the new wave of stand-up specials to be special enough to be seen on the big screen.

It’s his first stand-up film since 2010’s “Where U Been?” and the first for New Wave Entertainment in its new deal with NCM Fathom Events to bring stand-up onto movie screens — SINBAD: Make Me Wanna Holla is expected to hit more than 500 theaters for one night and one screening only, at 8 p.m. Thursday, Aug. 22, 2013.

Sinbad recorded this performance last August at The Fillmore in Detroit.

“I’m excited to be doing my first stand-up special for movie theaters,” Sinbad said in the press release. “This will be my funkiest stand-up ever. It’s time to know the dark side – the Memphis red side of Sinbad.”
